That Twitter feed has apparently misidentified a few innocent people. That's outrageously not OK.

It's certainly fair to expose neo-Nazis, but you absolutely cannot implicate the wrong guy.

That's completely true, wanted to post it myself but forgot Sad. Which is why I'm really wary of amateurs trying to identify people.

So, who wants to bet Charlottesville becomes a watershed historical moment that helps define the Trump era? Seems a good bet.
His first major domestic test and he failed miserably.

This will probably hurt his numbers in a manner disproportionate to its significance, as it 1. As you said, is his first domestic test 2. It reinforces and makes more credible a pre-existing reputation of his and 3. It gives a convenient point for his soft support to jump ship

For a group so dedicated to beating Democrats and the Left the neo-Nazis and the white supremacists did a great deal to help them yesterday.

Really, how much more could they have done? They demonstrated they were bigots who liked the idea of running down counter protestors with cars and openly doing night time rallies with torches (minus the hoods) while disparaging Jews and non-whites.

Did I forget to mention 80% of them were MAGA people? That there were Trump MAGA hats and people professing love for the God Emperor?

Once more they did a bang up job of helping their critics. I for one take pleasure in that. I hope the Neo-Nazis and the white segregationists are shunned and forced into becoming recognized as clearly morally offensive and unworthy to participate in democracy.

The TOS forbids me to say more but you can guess what I would say about these people if I could.

Well, they just got a load of attention. It all was negative, but it probably also helped "the MSM hates white people" narrative. They'll never get a majority of American people behind their ideas (yes, a sizable minority of Trump voters presumably isn't deplorable) so riling up and slightly expanding their hateful little base is all they can wish for.

In the sense I have rather strong opinions against them and would ah, let us say express them pungently. I will say that they are the face of evil. The alt right demonstrated yesterday that they're part of an evil ideology.

It's sad that "reporting on Neo-Nazis" is now the same as "hating on white people." And it's sad that a lot of people genuinely subscribe to this line of thinking.

Wtf? How in the world would any rational person see yesterday's MSM coverage as anti-white unless you're a racist yourself?

Not. But as demonstrated yesterday there are a lot of racists, and a lot of them are still lurking in their basements.

The people who went to that rally (not the counter protestors) are treasonous filth and are indeed evil. They are the face of the damned and this is the beating heart of the alt right. There that's the TOS acceptable way to say it.

Can we just all agree white nationalists and Nazis are evil people? And they're probably those who would take up arms against the United States if given half a chance?

Can we also all agree the alt right's beating heart and core is white nationalism?

There are so many problems. So many, many problems. But don't worry, I'm going to solve them all. I'm going to solve them all, like nobody ever solved problems. It's true!

Exactly. These people are p***ies.

Probably tired after attending the rally, if he went (and strong probability the guy who declared that there was a “war on whites” could've gone there). Pennsylvania is pretty close to Virginia. Gotta get his rest if so!

The general sentiment is pretty good but that's still a stupid writing full of bad examples and inaccuracies. This part made me cringe:

"There is no travel ban on them because of their religion."

There isn't for anybody. It could've been accurate and just as relevant changing "religion" to "national origin" so why not do that?
